He gave so much that He could give no more!,.

Back to Christ's Comfort for Weary Pilgrims!

---

(Henry Law, "Gleanings from the Book of Life")</em>

With what a price has Christ redeemed His people! 

He paid not silver and gold for their ransom. 

He gave not all the precious things of earth as 
their equivalent. He heaped not worlds upon worlds 
and placed them as payment in the balance of God's 
justice. All such expenditure would have been as 
unavailing as the chaff. 

He gave . . .
Himself, 
His life, 
His blood. 

He gave so much that He could give no more! 

And He gave this to bear the extremest curse of 
God, to endure all the punishment, and all the 
miseries, and all the anguish which His people 
must have suffered if they had wailed through all 
the endless ages amid the torments of the lost!
